Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to receptacles used to receive and retain discharge from a body and more particularly, relates to a new garment designed to be worn on the body by canines, or the like, for receiving and retaining the discharge of their solid body wastes.[0003]2. Description of the Related Art[0004]Dogs and other mammals evacuate their intestinal contents anywhere. Not picking up after them causes the deterioration of the environment and problems to public health, mainly due to the spread diseases. Dog owners typically take their pets out for walks to spend time with them, for recreational purposes, and for exercise.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0011]The instant invention provides a solution to avoid that fecal matter fall to the ground, and to prevent owners from having to pick it up and dispose of it, thus preventing the contamination and the spreading of diseases transmitted by canines and other mammals.

[0012]The instant invention comprises a bag and strap assembly, which can be entirely made of plastic. Plastic density or thickness of the instant invention varies according to the area of the invention; at the bag assembly, the area of deposit is thinner, and at the accordion, it is slightly thicker. It is noted that the variation of thickness at the different parts of this instant invention allows it to be used and handled better, particularly during the placement and removal of the same.

Problems solved by technology

Not picking up after them causes the deterioration of the environment and problems to public health, mainly due to the spread diseases.

In most cases however, the fecal matter is not picked up at all.

None of them, however, includes a bag assembly secured to a strap assembly, designed to be worn on the body by canines, mammals or the like, for receiving and retaining the discharge of their solid body wastes.
